And by obstacles I mean the Mets.

Super Dooper poor defense which is becoming the norm is hard to overcome.

Thankfully, Johan Santana is even harder to overcome. Another solid outing limiting the high powered Red Sox offense who were helped by 3 NY errors to only 3 runs.

Plus we got Gary Sheffield jacking another bomb, at 502 he is well on his way to 600.

Francisco’s save kept him perfect on the year in save opportunities. After last years debacle, that sounds too good to be true. But we Love it. And so does Johan.

The issue here is yes, Johan can overcome 3 errors in a game and get a win. I just don’t feel very confident any of our other starters can overcome 3 errors and get a win. After each error, Johan got every batter afterwards in each inning out.  That is called perserverance.
